SA is right for your location [Norway]...So it's probably good...

Sure, post a pic! I have an MG-34 ammo can marked SA...As well as a Lahti, sadly, not marked SA...

Two different types exist: one for the Lathi (very often) and one for the P08 fgr Finnland (rare)

Kal, I've also seen 2 types of SA marked Finnish Army mag loading tools. Some are the standard German made ones, either from their contract of 1923 or wartime captured items, which the Finns usually stamped "SA" when they become army property. I've recently observed some thinner, more "squarish" SA marked tools offer by Sarco of questionable origin. The Lathi loading tools, were of a completly different desigh, that completely enclosed the mag and had a screw driver tip. TH

Is that really a Luger tool??? Seems to be missing some machined reliefs...

klaus 3338 · 07-13-2013, 06:54 AM

Kai, it is the Lathi tool. The Luger tool looks like the one on the picture.

Hello Kai.

I have a tool like yours. Hard to say, but they are propably fakes. Almost all I have seen look to be in unused condition. And that stamp is not the hardest to fake. And the back side is not milled.
One of mine has the SKY stamp too.
They work with some magazines.

Milled relief on backside of Luger tool should look like this one...(Which is a Sarco copy/fake)...
